Inliners International Forums General Discussion Engines Holley/Weber jet sizes for 230?!

Yes nexx, that is correct, it finally warmed up a bit so I got around to pulling the top off the carb and checking those main circuit jets.

Primary
60 Idle
137 Main
190 Bleed

Secondary
Idle 50
180 Main
180 Bleed

In comparison to DeuceCoupes numbers, these jet sizes are not making sense to me. I am definitely no expert, but shouldn't the main jet on the primary be larger since DC was running a 132 on a 122cid engine and this is a 137 on a 230cid?

Should the main and bleed jets be the same size?? I'm gonna give Tom a call and see what he thinks..

Oh, and the carb looked very clean inside. I sprayed the passages out with carb cleaner and compressed air to be sure though. This is my only vehicle so I'd really like to get his figured out.
